AUDREY is a filmmaker from a small town in New Jersey. Her work lives at the intersection of documentary and narrative, exploring how these forms can borrow from one another to reveal deep truths. With a background in psychology and experience working with end-of-life and special needs individuals as a doula, Audrey embraces storytelling with care and humility. Audrey's projects often focus on activism and delve into themes such as multidimensional trauma, LGBTQ+ identity, cultural preservation, and community resistance.

After graduating from NYU Tisch in 2020, Audrey’s short film Before We Die won Best Short Film at the 38th Boston Film Festival, while her feature-length screenplay Balloons Over Neptune was named a finalist for the Sundance Feature Film Development Lab. In 2022, she took part in the Austin Film Festival's Writers Conference and Pitch Competition. The following year, Audrey and her writing partner, Francesca Lopez, were awarded a narrative lab scholarship by Stowe Story Labs to develop their women-centered television series Kitchen Tables, which is currently in development with Harlem Film Company. In 2024, Audrey collaborated with the International Center of Photography on a project exploring love and communication in deaf/hearing relationships. Most recently, she received the 2025 Voices With Impact Grant to complete her autobiographical short film A Town Called Needville, and is now co-directing a feature-length documentary that explores refugee resettlement and immigration in the United States amid today’s sociopolitical climate.

Audrey's films have been recognized by Raindance Film Festival (Best Documentary Short Nominee), Brooklyn Film Festival, The Future of Film is Female, Montclair Film Festival, Austin Film Festival, and more.
